प्रश्न
Show how will you synthesize pentan-1-ol using a suitable alkyl halide.
उत्तर
Hydrolysis of 1-bromopentane by aqueous NaOH gives pentan-1-ol.
\[\ce{\underset{1-bromopentane}{CH3 - CH2 - CH2 - CH2 - CH2 - Br} + NaOH ->[\Delta][S_{N}2 Hydrolysis ] \underset{pentan-1-ol}{CH3CH2CH2CH2 - CH2 - OH} + NaBr}\]
